Reporting in

[Rattic]

Hey peep,
Just thought I'd report my findings to you.

Took a while for me to get it running, but the solution was listed here.

Game goes into Nvidia logo screen, then to KF logo, where screen goes to black, and I was sat there for too long before I figured you have to press escape, lol. (Would be good if you could make it go automatically to menu?)

Whilst someone in another post said the music was good, I was receiving no in-game or menu music. When I adjust the volume level in options, I get the default UT2004 menu music.

Whilst in-game, as soon as I or the bots start to fire, my game cuts out and reports this message:

UT2004 Build UT2004_Build_[2004-03-03_02.42]

OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: AuthenticAMD Unknown processor @ 2005 MHz with 1022MB RAM
Video: NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X (7184)

Failed to find function CheckForSplash in L85Attachment KF-BioticsLab.L85Attachment

Looks like it might just be my computer tho, lol

EDIT: Actually all this could just be because I dont have any patches for UT04 installed...doin this now

Heh. Nearly had a heart attack there. Let me know if everything works all right afterward.

Yupp, all fine and dandy now, rofl...I did the exact same thing with a BF1942 mod I worked on, lol. ;D

Runs fine, only things to comment on are personal preference things such as the lead into options menu from nvidia screen that i mentioned above. When you lose it says "you have lost the match". That could do with possibly changing to something more relevant like "you have lost your fight for life" or "you and your team are no more"...I dont know exactly, lol, but hopefully you get what Im saying

Some of the team radio commands seemed to have inconsistancies in volume and sound. Some seemed to be very clear and then some had the 'radio' quality reduction effect on them. If ya need any help with sounds/editing, let me know, n I'll be happy to help.

Anyway, great work guys! Keep it up!

That's because some of them are the stock UT2004 voice overs, while a couple are custom voices.

I've done some voice acting for mods before. If you guys need some more voice samples, I could probably do a few.

[Slinky]

Heh, yeah, right now the standard bot voice packs are in. Couldn't hurt to draw up 1 or 2. I know alex is a pretty good voice actor- both "the zombies are coming"-ish sounds are him, as well as all the zombie sounds. He's got some program that he mixes up teh sounds with. Anyway, cool.

[Rattic]

yeah, didnt notice they were stock sounds as I aint pld UT04 much. But getting some voice actors would be good for the different 'characters'? You got me n nup offerin here, n if you plan to have a female character, I'm pretty sure I remember someone over at the official UT forums who does lots of voice acting on mods....I just remembered I recorded loads of zombie groans for a zombie mod ages ago that failed, if ya want em, lol. Tho zombie sounds were good if a little on the sparse side. Being able to hear lots of zombies down the corridor would be cool ;D
